Information technologies such as gadgets and various services have now become a common part of our daily lives. The development of these technologies is also supported by the government, for example through the Digital Economy national programme. This program pours large amounts of money into the field of information security, supports Russian IT companies and provides Internet access to households.
The growing popularity of digital technologies is explained by the high demand for them by users. For example, global smartphone sales increased by 5 percent last year after declining for a period of time. This was achieved in part thanks to a recovery in demand in developing countries, analysts said. Russia is also seeing an increase in sales of some electronic devices, such as laptops, and this is confirmed by ITReseach research.
Digital technologies, especially devices such as smartphones and laptops, greatly facilitate our daily lives. They allow us to connect with others and accomplish many tasks in a few clicks.
However, with the development of technology, new problems arise; for example, the gap between those who know how to use new tools and those who do not. This situation can lead to discrimination, for example, when retirees who do not know how to use a smartphone encounter problems in daily life. But the development of technology promises to continue making our lives easier, opening new opportunities for communication and work.
